1Quick Experimentation

Specifically, this initializes the Anarki main namespace verbosely,
then runs a REPL with current-directory set to the Anarki
installation directory and current-namespace set to the
Anarki main namespace. It’s equivalent to the following:

2Initializing

Initializes a namespace with the Arc primitives, so that it can be
used to evaluate Arc code. This can take a while to complete.

For the "-in-main-namespace" variants, the namespace
initialized is anarki-main-namespace, and the
initialization is entirely skipped if either of these variants has
been called before.

For the other variants, the namespace initialized is
(current-namespace), and if the namespace has already been
initialized, it’s initialized again. This can even be used to
double-initialize anarki-main-namespace.

The "-verbose" variants may print messages to
(current-error-port) to report on the initialization
progress.

The system path to the directory where Anarki is installed. Most of
Anarki’s libraries are distributed in the "lib" directory
under this path, and most of them expect current-directory
to be set to this path so they can load each other or store their
application state.
